Players take on the role of elite warriors known as Slayers who protect humanity by hunting ferocious Behemoths. Dauntless is being created by a team of industry veterans from BioWare, Riot Games, and other acclaimed studios, led by co-founders, Jesse Houston, Sean Bender and Robin Mayne.

The world of Dauntless has been shattered by a cataclysmic event, creating a vast array of uncharted and majestic floating islands. Behemoths, as cunning as they are vicious, consume the land, and it’s up to the Slayers to hunt them down before they destroy what remains of the world. Slayers will explore an ever-changing frontier, brimming with verdant flora and unique wildlife.

The Founder’s Alpha for Dauntless will launch on August 18, and players will be able to stream and capture content as soon as it’s live. Players who have purchased a Founder-tier Founder’s Pack will be able to explore the Shattered Isles in this first publicly available version of Dauntless.

Phoenix Labs has also announced the Dauntless Partner Program, an opportunity for the Dauntless community, including passionate content creators and artists to add to the Dauntless experience.

In Dauntless, Slayers can go at it alone or join cooperative parties with up to four people to take on the Behemoth threat. No two encounters are alike - each brings its own unique challenges and rewards. To survive on the Shattered Isles, players collect rewards from their hunts to upgrade their arsenal of weapons and armor in a deep and robust crafting system.
